is that canard still being repeated? ho hum, wilful ignorance is so utterly boring. so impossible to bring wisdom about under such circumstances. it just goes to show what happens when you don't know about even the recent history of the world. saddam complained to ambassador april glasspie that the kuwaitis were slant-drilling into oil pools under iraqi territory and ambassador glasspie replied, quite properly, that a dispute of that nature was not a us concern. saddam then invaded kuwait, speciously claiming that kuwait was historically the 19th province of iraq.
